Quality of Service (QoS) is a networking term that specifies a
guaranteed throughput level. When data packets with QoS
priority information pass through QoS supported device, these
packets will be handled with priority. Without certain level of
QoS, multimedia applications such as Streaming Video and
Network Conference can be sluggish or stopped due to network
congestions.
This Switch supports Port -Based QoS. It exams each packet
according to the priority code (high or normal) of the port.
The default settings for all ports’ QoS are Normal. To change the
Port-Based QoS setting, select the Port number, highlight the
QoS field, and hit Space Bar to select High or Normal.
QoS Example: The computers connect to Switch’s Port 1 ~ 5 do
Video Conferencing regularly. To ensure video/voice streaming
quality between these 5 Users, you can set Port 1 ~ 5 QoS to High
and set the rest of the ports’ QoS to Normal.
VLAN Setting
In VLAN settings, you can group a number of ports into
individual “virtual” network. Port(s) not in the same VLAN will
not be able to communicate with each other. To setup VLAN,
enter the VLAN group number and you will see
[vvvvvvvvvv:vvvvvvv]. Each v (or -) represents a port; starting
from left to right, the port number is 1~17, with : after port 10
and port 20. Use [Tab] and [Backspace] keys to locate the desired
